Légende
Fox-hunting, 1854. '...an average provincial scene, with more sport and fun than fashion. We should say that Reynard has been dodging them round a big wood for an hour or two, until the whole field hasbecome thoroughly impatient; and, on the welcome sounds of "Tallo-ho-away !" a good many are dashing out of the cover and over the post and rails-the gate is locked-at a pace too good to last. The boy on the pony is making tremendous play, and means to go while he can. The young lady, on the other hand, has enjoyed the morning ride to cover, and the excitement and music of the find, and the repeated ringing of the fox round the big wood; she will now discreetly leave her father and brothers to ride to the hounds, and return under charge of the old groom who brought up papa's hunter'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
